You Gave To Me

You gave me to your doubts,
You gave me to your concerns,
You gave me to your suspicion,

I gave to you my tears.

You gave to me your gentleness,
You gave to me your sharing,
You gave to me your laughter,

But I just disappeared.

You tried to call me up.
You tried to call me wrong.

I didn't understand what was in your fear.

You gave me your camera,
to take pictures of what you see.
I accepted your camera,
not to see what I could see.

A picture without interpretation is a wonderful scene to be.
